How do you know Capellan is not better than Aquino? Aquino can't even get the basics done, plus Capellan is a man on a mission this year it seems. Give the guy a chance, what can you lose?

[wOOgiE22]

I'd rather seen Shouse pitch to the righty than Aquino

[Team Canada]

Have we confirmed that Matt Wise is still in fact alive and hasn't run into another pair of salad tongs?

[tyguy20204]

Yeah Wise was wasted in the blowout.

[billyhallfan]

with all due respect, Aquino was very very good before this outing...

[sundevil1]

Can somebody please tell me why Cappellan is not in the bullpen?

[crewcrazy]

And then Aquino almost throws away the last out by lobbing it underhand to Prince...wow.

 

Let's just hope the trend of scoring the half inning after Cincy scores continues. And that Todd Coffey is available.

[Brewers77]

You people paging wise need to follow along with the team. He is NOT available. Pitched a couple days in a row already. We have nobody else right now. Its not on YOST! Aquino had a bad game and now it looks like a loss. Get off the bridge.

[NeedMoreFans]

Greg Aquino is my new whipping boy. I didn't have one up until this point, but throwing 10 straight balls (though 2 were intentional) is enough for me, not to mention the base clearing double.

[BrewCityUnit]

Well......I will take a 4-3 road trip.

 

This team will not be a playoff team with Nedly Yost running the show. At the same time, you can't use Wise, Turnbow and Cordero everynight. Other pitchers have to step up. Time for Capallean to come back to MIlwaukee.

 

I am now focused on the homestand.....4-1 is what I am prediciting.

[And That]

with all due respect, Aquino was very very good before this outing...

 

Except for allowing like 3 of 4 inherited runners to score.

[TauPentaRei]

This pinch hitter spot coming up batting 4th in the inning that Ned was waiting for better be able to drive in 6 to get our lead back...

 

Nedded.

[wOOgiE22]

This game is a kick in the teeth, we had it right for the taking but the bullpen just collapsed

[thablingster]

If it makes anyone feel better, Jose Capellan would have just given up the grand slam instead of walking the guy, lol.

 

It was pretty much Aquino's inning to lose, we probably can't use Dessens and Wise tonight, and Shouse and CV were gone ... so yeah. Unless Bow is going to pitch 2 innings, it is Aquino's inning to lose, and he lost it. lol

[bucks2281]

I'd rather seen Shouse pitch to the righty than Aquino

 

That's what I was thinking, too. It couldn't have been much worse than what we just saw.

[billyhallfan]

Everyone--

 

as much as it sucked, Wise can't pitch that much, his arm will fall off, it just isn't practical, he isn't physiclly capable of doing so.

 

 

Also, I'm a Ned Yost fan, but that was horrible, and what was even worse was how Bill was saying that there was nothing that Ned could have done different.

[Brewers77]

Isn't life great if all of us could live in the world of making decisions after we see the result.

[tyguy20204]

It's on Yost, because he doesn't know how to manage a bullpen. Even Dessens would have been better in that spot than Aquino after it was shown he absolutely did not have it. And the reason Wise wasn't available was because he was wasted in a blowout.

[hawing]

y'all can scream for Cappy2 all you want, the problem is -- on the whole -- he's no better than Aquino.

 

While he may not be throwing to the backstop much lately, yeah, my confidence in Capellan is not there either.

 

And my confidence in Aquino has definitely taken a hit. Maybe the #41 jersey still has some bad Kolb mojo woven in.

[PeaveyFury]

peavey I hope you are kidding. This has nothing to do with bill hall.

 

He just made an error in the field that cost us a run. How is that defensible?

[littledoc83]

with all due respect, Aquino was very very good before this outing...

 

Except for allowing like 3 of 4 inherited runners to score.

 

 

Exactly... his ERA is good, he's killing other pitcher's ERA.... he has been terrible with inherited runners.

that is an ignorant comment at best...

[adamb100]

You would have thought after walking the lead runner in Yost would pull him but no, he had to let the game split open.

[billyhallfan]

if Ned blows 1 in 13 games, that will cost us a playoff spot, I doubt it...

[JET15]

Cmon, load em up for Rickie. We'll get right back in this thing
